(It gets better. Read the document)On January 19, 2012, the FCC received a complaint that Mr. Johnson’s CB station was causing interference to his neighbors’ telephone and television reception.[1] When agents in the Enforcement Bureau’s Philadelphia Office (Philadelphia Office) attempted to conduct an on-scene inspection at Mr. Johnson’s residence on February 16, 2012, no one answered the agents’ knock on the door.
